[QUOTE=John Henry]I am often surprised by the topics and questions on this forum which are considered to be philosophical. The word 'philosophy' roughly translates as 'Passion for wisdom' which is pretty much what I understand it to be.
I think the basic definition of philosophy is "whats real" (the attempt to discover an explanation for the whole of existence or reality.
eg. what is the nature of nature? what is truth? what is morality? what is the purpose of life?
